Serie A football, in the sprint of the poor Milan overtakes Juve

“We threw away a great opportunity in the race towards Europe,” commented Viola coach Vincenzo Italiano, alluding to Biraghi’s missed penalty at 2-1. Roma, still in fifth place, therefore gained a precious point after a first half dominated by the Viola, who were too imprecise in front of goal.

Having scored with Ranieri in the first half, Fiorentina, after having conceded an equalizer from Aouar, managed to regain the lead in the second half with Mandragora, quick to close in from close range. The last minute draw was a blow that doesn’t preclude the race towards Europe but complicates it a lot.

Milan of “short snout”

Finally some interesting news about the Devil, about whom everything and the opposite of everything have been said for some time: especially about the future of Stefano Pioli, who has incredibly become one of the most popular topics after Chiara Ferragni’s upsets and Gianluca Vacchi’s bizarre videos. Well the news, hold on tight, is that Milan’s match, won thanks to a goal from the American Pulisc (eighth in the league), was almost fatally boring. To collapse on the sofa as happens after lunch with the Formula One Grand Prix. Accustomed to super goals followed by reckless attacks from the defence, a simple success obtained with minimum effort (and maximum result) is a real godsend for AC Milan fans, now resigned to any extreme experience. No, no craziest plane in the world. This time the flight was calm, obvious, with a gray control of the advantage to arrive without air gaps at the next trip to Prague. To tell the truth, in the 88th minute a danger (gored by Destro left all alone) arrived, but it was only a flash, a sort of nervous tic, like when after giving up smoking we put our hand in our pocket to look for a cigarette. Speaking of rumours: both Paolo Scaroni and Ibrahimovic have reiterated that, in the club, they are all happy with Pioli. Were we in his shoes, we’d be crossing our fingers and whatever.

Inter’s magical moment

By praising Inter, we risk sanctifying it before its time. Also because it is better to first wait until everything goes well at Atletico Madrid’s home on Wednesday.

Cholo is a thorny client and the 1-0 in the first leg does not guarantee a smooth passage, on the contrary. It’s true that Inzaghi’s team is now stopping at nothing. In addition to the title, and the second star, he now wants to break all records. It achieved its tenth consecutive victory (like only two other times in its history) and now with 75 points on matchday 28 it is also aiming to surpass the record (102 points) of Antonio Conte’s Juventus in 2013-14. The Nerazzurri can reach 105 from row to row. All very nice, but what is most striking, as seen with Bologna, is his ability to win regardless. On the eve of the match against Atletico, we all thought that there could be a slowdown.
